1/ I’ve known Nick White for nearly 6 years. We met while building Harmony Protocol, he was a cofounder, I led growth. Nick is a genuine builder who cares about pushing crypto forward. We caught up on the pod to talk Celestia 🦣: what it is, why it matters, where it’s going. Summary Peter Abilla interviews Nick White, VP at Celestia Labs, to unpack how Celestia is solving the blockchain scalability problem. They explore the breakthrough of data availability sampling, the shift from monolithic to modular blockchains, and how Celestia fits into the broader Ethereum ecosystem. Nick shares insights on trade-offs in modular design, product market fit, cost advantages, and what’s next for ZKVMs and modular infra. Takeaways • Celestia is redefining how blockchains handle data availability • Blockchain scalability remains a major challenge • Data availability sampling (DAS) is a core innovation • Modular blockchains offer flexibility and specialization • Trade-offs exist between modular and monolithic designs • “Cathedral vs. Bazaar” analogy captures the decentralization shift • Celestia works alongside Ethereum, not against it • Product market fit depends on developer traction and real-world use • Celestia reduces costs and improves reliability • ZKVMs are key to the future of modular blockchain development Timeline (00:00) Introduction to Celestia and its vision (01:00) The scalability challenge in blockchain (06:04) How data availability sampling works (10:10) Comparing monolithic and modular blockchains (14:39) Trade-offs of modular blockchain design (18:21) The Cathedral and Bazaar analogy (22:41) How Celestia fits into the blockchain ecosystem (24:49) What makes Celestia’s architecture unique (26:08) Defining product market fit for Celestia (31:05) Cost savings and performance benefits (35:48) Distribution and growth strategy (40:13) ZKVMs and the modular future (44:36) What’s coming next for Celestia -------- Episode is brought to you by Infinex.

Tom Lee: Ethereum DATs can use ~$500 million in annual staking rewards to fund grants for Ethereum ecosystem “The Ethereum Treasuries — Bitmine and Sharplink among others — now own 7% of the Ethereum supply… Treasury stock is essentially supply permanently taken out from the ecosystem, but we also own the yield. The yield is around 3% so today these public treasuries are generating ~$500 million in rewards, and that is what we can use to fund and grant the crypto ecosystem.” Lee believes that the Ethereum Foundation narrowing its focus to CROPs (censorship resistance, openness, privacy and security) is the right decision. “Ethereum is a $240 billion network value entity. It has been operating for 11 years without a single day of downtime. There’s 11,500 nodes in 89 different countries. And there’s 15,000 developers. I think this is too big to be coordinated by a single foundation.” As Ethereum continues to scale, he believes the ecosystem will move beyond a foundation-centric model and points to private companies like Etherealize, Optimism, Consensys, Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, and Offchain Labs that represent the Ethereum ecosystem and are already doing enterprise engagement. “This list doesn’t yet reflect the spinoffs coming from the Ethereum Foundation. There’s at least five, and I think Bitmine will play a role in granting and supporting any of those that come out.” “I think Ethereum is in good hands because the foundation is going to be stronger by staying focused. We have a lot of private sector companies already building products and important L2s on Ethereum. And of course, the treasuries are here to help with funding and granting… If you’re bearish, you are selling at the bottom.”

Etherealize CEO Vivek Raman: Banks are looking at Larry Fink and Ethereum “It’s impossible not to be bullish now. […] The [Ethereum] network has never been stronger, more resilient, or future-proofed to scale with Layer 2s plugged in and ready for the institutional moment right now. Asset price will follow.” “[BlackRock CEO] Larry Fink is a pioneer in the space. He has been a visionary, and his voice is heard and listened to by everyone else on Wall Street. The banks are looking at him. The asset managers are looking at him. He’s one of the leaders that’s digital assets-forward, and when he tokenized BUIDL — their money market fund — on Ethereum before there was regulatory clarity and before we got out of the Gensler SEC, that set the standard for Ethereum to be the default.” “Ever since then, the money in money market funds on Ethereum has multiplied. Stablecoins on Ethereum have multiplied. And now Larry Fink is coming in and saying, ‘We need one common blockchain’ so that we don’t have fragmentation and all tokenized assets can be in one place. That means Ethereum — it’s the best set up for it.” Source: The Rollup (Mar 2026)

If you do anything today, please listen to this 3-min clip on what Co-CEO Joseph Chalom refers to as The ETH Opportunity... FYI, Joe is the former Head of Digital Assets Strategy at BlackRock, who drove the creation of IBIT, ETHA, and BUIDL. "The more assets and transactions that are secured on the Ethereum network, have been proven to increase the value of ETH..." "If you look at the last 5 years, for each $2 secured on the network, on Ethereum and the L2s, it's driven about $1 of market cap value of Ethereum [ETH]..." "And if you take a step back and say stablecoins are at this size today, but Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says it's gonna grow to a trillion over the next 3 years, if you look at the adoption of RWAs, which is in the first inning and can literally go j-curve, the value of tokenized assets which could be measured in the trillions or tens of trillions... they are gonna be secured by a decentralized network. We believe the vast majority is gonna be Ethereum. That is a bull case for ETH..." "If more assets are secured on the Ethereum network, the value of ETH will go up, and the value of it being a trust commodity, the highest value of money, is gonna be critically important if you believe we are at a paradigm shift, and that's what I call the ETH opportunity. It's not a trade, it's an ETH opportunity." "And for all of those who feel like they missed the early days of crypto, you are at still a very early entry point in the adoption of Ethereum and that is the long term ETH opportunity, not the ETH trade."

Here's why $NEAR is a no-brainer in 2025 👇 Everybody loves NEAR Protocol and there is a reason for that (or many). Near is well-positioned to be one of the leading blockchain ecosystems this year. Let’s explore the “whys”. TIMESTAMPS Quick Bio – 00:00:15 Inflation Reduction Proposal – 00:00:43 Technically Speaking – 00:02:40 Near Intents – 00:03:37 Chain Signatures and AI – 00:04:39 Decentralization and DeFi – 00:05:59 I have my Near account since March 2023, but it has been inactive for a while, as I was focused on other stuff. However, the recent inflation halving proposal by HOT DAO (HOT Protocol 🔥) and LiNEAR (LiNEAR Protocol) brought my eyes back to the project and I really like what I’m seeing. So, here’s my first point. If this proposal passes, NEAR could lead the way in what appears to be a market trend of improving the tokenomics, as more and more experts realize holders have been overpaying for these networks' security, with a too high supply inflation. Solana tried something similar, but the proposal was rejected. In my opinion, validators voting favorably to that show a commitment to the chain for the long term. On the other hand, voting against it signals a short-term vision focused on milking the emissions as much as possible, at the ecosystem’s expense. The voting currently goes with 28% “YEA” votes, needing 66.76% to pass. Most of the validators who already cast their votes went with the yes. 2pilot, avb, openshards, qbit, sicmundus, fox, and intear are, so far, the only seven who voted “NAY”. This proposal has the vocal support of most influential figures in the Near ecosystem, including the Near Foundation (NEAR Foundation), led by Illia (root.near) (🇺🇦, ⋈), which makes me believe it will pass and show the power of the halving in getting the market’s attention and presenting a huge investment asymmetry for the native token right now. Is this everything I like about NEAR? Definitely not. This is just what got me looking at it again, just to discover a (very much) thriving ecosystem, full of interesting things happening at the same time. I’ll mention a few, but there is (much) more. Technically speaking, Near is a high-performance blockchain, with really low fees and one of the fastest finalities, with 600ms block time and approximately 1.8s finality. It also has my favorite architecture for internet-scale scalability, using sharding, while keeping a high decentralization standard. As a learning programmer, Near also has one of the best dev experiences (in my limited opinion). The documentation is clear, has a logical journey, presenting from the basic anatomy in details to more complex SDKs and tools. I’m also in love with the near-cli-rs. A command line interface program written in Rust for seamless interaction with the Near blockchain. Allowing wallet creation, chain query, sending transactions, staking, smart contract calls, and more. Near Intents. This was the second thing to get my attention, while studying the project again, and it sets a whole new standard for blockchain interactions, especially cross-chain. Basically, users can declare an intention (for example, swap Ethereum-USDT to Bitcoin) and a network of solvers, running on Near, will find the best path to accomplish this task. We recently saw an impressive 465k-worth swap happening in exactly this example, paying 0.55% of trading fees to thorswap.near and swapkit.near. According to a Dune Dashboard, the protocol accumulates nearly $400 million in volume since its launch not long ago, in November 2024. *obs.: half this volume was achieved in the last month. Massive! Near Intents is possible due to two other very interesting things: (i) Chain abstraction, and (ii) a solid AI infrastructure. Chain abstraction (via Chain Signatures) is a powerful interoperability feature, allowing Near to friendly connect different blockchains as if they were part of a single network. Users and devs benefit from wallet, address, fees, and cross-chain bridges abstractions - not even noticing they are interacting with multiple chains. One wallet that powers everything. Powered by Near. On AI, Near is just built differently. Not for the hype, but for the solution. The team has been looking for AI solutions much before the ChatGPT fever. Actually, they started as an AI company, pivoting to blockchain later. So, being one of the most promising networks for the growing AI economy was just the natural path to follow. There is an extensive and super complete research piece on that topic, recently published by Reflexivity Research (Reflexivity Research) on July 1st. It presents Near as an AI-optimized blockchain, covering AITP, Shade Agents, x402, Near Intents, and more. Definitely worth the reading. Wrapping up this content with one more aspect that really matters to me is how Near remains truthful to decentralization, data ownership, censorship-resistance and open-source primitives that have been increasingly abandoned by other key players. A simple example of that is how the Near Foundation decided to deprecate its public APIs, encouraging the surge of a more decentralized and competitive market of SaaS projects, with a highlight to Lava Network, that recently appeared in my timeline talking about that. DeFi is also huge on Near, leveraging all the previous properties I mentioned, creating a truly decentralized liquidity pool via Rhea Finance, connected with other chains like BTC, Ethereum, ZCash, and more. All that contributes to Near having the second-largest monthly active addresses, with nearly 50 million, only losing to Solana’s nearly 90 million. In the meantime, NEAR, the token, is not even at the 30rd position by market cap. Crazy stuff. To (finally) wrap it up, I also want to mention Near’s consensus decentralization. While having a low node-count, the network has a Nakamoto Coefficient of 11, which is not bad at all. Surely, there is still room for improvement, which is possible as becoming a validator is accessible staking and hardware-wise.

Just finished an absolute monster of a podcast with Justin Drake, and it’s packed with brain-melting insights on the future of Ethereum. Here are the juiciest takeaways from Part I 👇 Ethereum’s future could turn the L1 into a rollup itself and making it the best type of rollup. Justin lays out how the L1, L2s, and new designs like Beamchain, native rollups, and based sequencing all come together into a unified vision for Ethereum as the credibly neutral internet of finance. What’s Broken Today • L2s are siloed — synchronous composability is dead. • Most rely on centralized sequencers, multisigs & slow exit bridges. • L2-native assets break Ethereum’s trustless bridge model. • Governance delays, security councils, & EVM reimplementation = attack surfaces. The Fix: Ethereum-native Infrastructure • Based Rollups: Use Ethereum L1 validators as the sequencer. Removes centralization risk, restores censorship resistance. • Native Rollups: No more reimplementing the EVM. No more Security Council multisigs. They inherit Ethereum’s execution layer by design. •Preconfirmations: Users get fast UX (e.g., instant trading feedback) via ETH-backed inclusion guarantees from L1 validators, with slashing if they lie. • Real-Time ZK Proofs: Slot-by-slot proving is here. ZK-enabled rollups with instant finality are becoming possible. To get there, Ethereum is moving toward real-time, slot-by-slot proving using ZK SNARKs. This enables constant-time verification and removes the need for validators to re-execute blocks. Native rollups use a new EXECUTE precompile to introspect and reuse Ethereum’s state transition function. There is no EVM emulation, no governance lag, and no reliance on Security Councils. Preconfirmations offer ETH-backed execution guarantees per slot, priced to offset MEV opportunity loss, while based rollups decentralize sequencing by aligning with Ethereum’s validator set. Beamchain pushes this vision further: a clean-slate Ethereum L1 design that is post-quantum secure, radically simplified (validators could run on a Raspberry Pi), and ossified through optimality. It proposes gigagas/s throughput via ZK proofs, validator statelessness, and Attester-Proposer-Separation (APS) to maximize decentralization and censorship resistance, allowing Ethereum L1 to scale as a high-performance rollup itself. If you're building on Ethereum or betting on its future, this convo is mandatory listening. To be continued in Part II....

"In my opinion the Ethereum network is much more secure in the long term. There's no obvious way to do a Bitcoin-like attack on it" Duke Professor Campbell Harvey on why you can't pull off the Bitcoin attack on Ethereum "This is important because most tokenized assets reside on either the Ethereum blockchain or Ethereum compatible blockchains. But Ethereum has a different method, there's no mining anymore, it's proof of stake. You'd need to take over at least a third of the existing Ethereum, and that turns out to be really hard to do" "Much of the Ethereum is staked, there's a huge queue to go into staking and not much to actually come out. About 65% of the supply is available to unstake, so to get a third you have to buy over half of the existing supply. That's going to be very expensive and would drive the price of Ether up dramatically" "The same trade we talked about for Bitcoin, where you buy the equipment and short the Bitcoin, doesn't work for Ethereum. Because you're buying the Ether, and then if you're selling, it's a wash. So there's no obvious way to do a Bitcoin-like attack on the network"

My 100 second elevator pitch on ETH to tradFi. Bitcoin is 1 asset - just bitcoin. Ethereum is all possible assets. Which is bigger? Gold...or all the assets in the world? Bitcoin was designed to secure one asset, just bitcoin. Ethereum is a general purpose platform designed to secure everything else: stablecoins, loans, equities, bonds, derivatives - everything in finance. The word for this is: Tokenization. People like Larry Fink are saying every stock, bond, and asset will be tokenized on a global ledger. And even he's thinking too small - tokenization isn't just the assets of the past it's the assets of the future - AI compute, personal data, social status & celebrity. Everything will be tokenized. Ethereum is a global computing network to tokenize and program any asset. Ethereum adds property rights to the internet. Tokenization can and will happen on other platforms, but Ethereum is positioned the strongest contender to ride the tokenization wave. 100 million people own ETH. 100 thousand developers actively contribute to the code. Already, Ethereum settles more annually than the Visa network…and it’s just getting started. Now let's talk about ETH. The cryptocurrency of Ethereum is called ETH and has investible economics, including an algorithmic buy-back and dividend program that drives billions per year in earnings to ETH holders. This number grows as the network expands. You can build a DCF model on ETH as you word with a stock like Nvidia. And because ETH is extremely secure and decentralized like Bitcoin, more and more people are seeing ETH as a compliment to Bitcoin as a non-sovereign store of value. While bitcoin has greater certainty of supply, Ethereum pays a dividend and is deflationary, with the upside of the entire token economy. Bitcoin is exposure to digital gold. Ethereum is exposure to everything else. I own both. But if I could only pick one, I'd pick the superset. I’d pick ETH.

BlackRock’s former Head of Crypto explains how he pitches ETH to Wall Street “The first thing we do is explain the Ethereum opportunity. Stablecoins, which are today about $310 billion, are going to trillions. Tokenized assets today are about $32 billion and going to trillions as well. Institutional DeFi adoption is happening like we’ve never seen before. We’ll get to agentic in a minute, but explaining to them — and they agree wholeheartedly — that the Ethereum ecosystem is going to be the future settlement layer for finance is the first step.” After explaining that Ethereum is going to be the global world ledger, Joseph Chalom, who is now the CEO of the $1.5 billion Ethereum treasury company Sharplink, talks about ETH the asset: “As the Ethereum ecosystem grows, you need more Ether to secure and settle these transactions. Therefore, Ether ends up becoming a trust commodity. We start with the principles and fundamentals . . . What we don’t do is make up numbers and talk about short-term price predictions for Ether.” The other thing Joseph does not do is compare Ether to Bitcoin. “The second narrative that people use typically is that [Ethereum] is ‘little brother’ to ‘big brother’ Bitcoin and that ETH is just some relative coefficient of the value of BTC and they need to trade together. What we’re trying to explain is that there is intrinsic value and Ether is going to be the trust commodity that is going to secure the future of finance . . . The number one thing to do is not make up numbers. And then number two, [Ethereum] is not a derivative of Bitcoin. It has intrinsic value to the future of the financial system.”
